  Entomology - The World of Insects

  Insects are among the most diverse and ecologically significant organisms on Earth, playing essential roles in maintaining the balance of ecosystems. As the largest group of living creatures, with millions of species identified and many more yet to be discovered, insects contribute to biodiversity, food webs, and ecosystem stability in ways that are often overlooked. Their presence and activities influence plant life, soil health, and the survival of countless other species, making them indispensable to natural processes. 
  One of the most crucial roles insects play is pollination. Many flowering plants, including a significant portion of the world’s crops, depend on insects such as bees, butterflies, and beetles to transfer pollen between flowers, enabling reproduction. Without insect pollinators, ecosystems would struggle to sustain plant diversity, and agricultural yields would decline drastically, threatening food supplies for both humans and wildlife. The economic and ecological value of insect pollination is immeasurable, reinforcing the importance of conserving pollinator populations. 
  In addition to pollination, insects are fundamental to decomposition and nutrient cycling. Species such as dung beetles, termites, and various flies break down organic matter, returning nutrients to the soil and promoting healthy plant growth. This process not only recycles essential elements but also prevents the accumulation of decaying material, contributing to ecosystem cleanliness and balance. By decomposing dead plants and animals, insects help maintain the natural cycle of life, supporting plant regeneration and sustaining the broader environment.

  Cornerstone at the Confluence -...

  Signed on November 24, 1922, the Colorado River Compact is body of laws colloquially called the "Law of the River" that governs how human beings use water from the river system dubbed the "American Nile." No fewer than forty million people have come to rely on the Colorado River system in modern times—a system immersed in an unprecedented, unrelenting megadrought for more than two decades. Attempting to navigate this "new normal," policymakers are negotiating new management rules for the river system, a process coinciding with the compact's centennial that must be completed by 2026. 
   
   
   
  Animated by this remarkable confluence of events, Cornerstone at the Confluence leverages the centennial year to reflect on the compact and broader "Law of the River" to envision the future. It is a volume inviting dialogue about how the river system's flows should be apportioned given climate change, what should be done about environmental issues such as ecosystem restoration and biodiversity protection, and how long-standing issues of water justice facing Native American communities should be addressed. 
   
   
   
  These topics touch on the concept of "equity" embedded within the compact—a concept that tees up what is perhaps the foundational question confronted by Cornerstone at the Confluence: Who should have a seat at the table of Colorado River governance?
